The man was George McGovern's and Jimmy Carter's pollster and I haven't heard him say a good thing about a Democrat since 1992....

(99,710 posts)Ford is a DLC* Democrat. Caddell hates all Democrats. You can see the contempt when he discusses them.
*I know the DLC is defunct but that's his mindset.

And since he lacks the character to admit he was wrong and keep his mouth shut, he looked for a soapbox where he could get paid to bad mouth the party which found him to be incompetent. And we all know who was willing to pay him to do that.
Kinda the same story with that piece a shit Dick Morris.

(81,198 posts)I found him to be a turncoat at first. Then shortly thereafter, a complete asshole! I find his phony outrage tiresome and not real. And when I did see him on camera, I found myself constantly asking - "whose side are you on?" One of those ungrateful disloyal assholes who forgets who brought him to the dance.

I am guessing he has always made above-median income without ever doing very hard work, thus why should he give a crap about the working class?
